You only call me when you're drunk and
You only say that you're in love when
Oh, you let go

You only say what's on your mind
when you've been drinking
I'm not the one until the liquor starts to sink in
Oh, we both know

If I can only have you when you're drunk
Drink up, drink up
And if you need one more to fall in love
Drink up, drink up
Let's get drunk

I know you lie awake, I know you've got your daemons
You can't escape it
can't escape the empty sheets your in
Oh, you slip slow
And I know

That you're not perfect but I love to watch you sleep and
You could be perfect if you poured it down the sink
But you don't
So I won't

If I can only have you when you're drunk
Drink up, drink up
And if you need one more to fall in love
Drink up, drink up
Let's get drunk

And maybe I, maybe I've got the problem
Cause baby you, baby you, you are the bottle
When I need
Another drink

If I can only have you when you're drunk
Drink up, drink up
And if you need one more to fall in love
Drink up, drink up
Let's get drunk
